Vieques... un largometraje

About This Movie

So, 'Vieques... un largometraje' is this raw documentary that digs deep into the impact of the U.S. Navy on the small Puerto Rican island of Vieques. The tone is heavy, filled with real emotions, especially when it captures those mass protests – you feel the urgency and tension in the air. The pacing can feel a bit uneven at times, but that adds to its authenticity, like you’re really there, witnessing everything unfold. The interviews with family members of David Sanes, who tragically lost his life due to military actions, are haunting. There’s a stark realism throughout, and the practical effects, or lack thereof, just amplify the lived experiences being shared. It’s a distinctive piece that sheds light on a significant, often overlooked history.
